We consider a complete Riemannian manifold M whose boundary is a disjoint union of finitely many complete connected Riemannian manifolds. We compute the index of a local boundary value problem for a strongly Callias-type operator on M. Our result extends an index theorem of D. Freed to non-compact manifolds, thus providing a new insight on the Horava-Witten anomaly.

We compute the index of a Callias-type operator with APS boundary condition on a manifold with compact boundary in terms of combination of indexes of induced operators on a compact hypersurface. Our result generalizes the classical Callias-type index theorem to manifolds with compact boundary.

We consider a hyperbolic Dirac-type operator with growing potential on a a spatially non-compact globally hyperbolic manifold. We show that the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer boundary value problem for such operator is Fredholm and obtain a formula for this in dex in terms of the local integrals and the relative eta-invariant introduced by Braverman and Shi. This extends recent results of Bar and Strohmaier, who studied the index of a hyperbolic Dirac operator on a spatially compact globally hyperbolic manifold.
We introduce a notion of cobordism of Callias-type operators over complete Riemannian manifolds and prove that the index is preserved by such a cobordism. As an application we prove a gluing formula for Callias-type index. In particular, a usual inde x of an elliptic operator on a compact manifold can be computed as a sum of indexes of Callias-type operators on two non-compact, but topologically simpler manifolds. As another application we give a new proof of the relative index theorem for Callias-type operators, which also leads to a new proof of the Callias index theorem.
We study differential operators on complete Riemannian manifolds which act on sections of a bundle of finite type modules over a von Neumann algebra with a trace. We prove a relative index and a Callias-type index theorems for von Neumann indexes of such operators. We apply these results to obtain a version of Atiyahs $L^2$-index theorem, which states that the index of a Callias-type operator on a non-compact manifold $M$ is equal to the $Gamma$-index of its lift to a Galois cover of $M$. We also prove the cobordism invariance of the index of Callias-type operators. In particular, we give a new proof of the cobordism invariance of the von Neumann index of operators on compact manifolds.
We consider a generalized APS boundary problem for a G-invariant Dirac-type operator, which is not of product type near the boundary. We establish a delocalized version (a so-called Kirillov formula) of the equivariant index theorem for this operator . We obtain more explicit formulas for different geometric Dirac-type operators. In particular, we get a formula for the equivariant signature of a local system over a manifold with boundary. In case of a trivial local system, our formula can be viewed as a new way to compute the infinitesimal equivariant eta-invariant of S. Goette. We explicitly compute all the terms in this formula, which involve the equivariant Hirzebruch L-form and its transgression, for four-dimensional SKR manifolds, a class including many Kaehler conformally Einstein manifolds, in the case where the boundary is given as the zero level set of a certain Killing potential. In the case of SKR metrics which are local Kaehler products, these terms are zero, and we obtain a vanishing result for the infinitesimal equivariant eta invariant.
